EAGLES SIGN 12 UNDRAFTED FREE AGENTS, TRYOUT 19 PLAYERS AT ROOKIE MINICAMP

May 6, 2022
 
Eagles

The newest Eagles took the field this afternoon as rookie minicamp got underway.

The team announced they signed 12 UDFAs ahead of camp, here’s a complete list of players with scouting reports:

CB Josh Blackwell, Duke

"Blackwell looked like a legitimate next-level prospect early in his Duke career, but he was very inconsistent as a senior in 2021. He possesses the size and speed and previously showed enough ball skills to get consideration as a dime back on Sundays. Nevertheless, Blackwell must get his game back together and be more focused on the field.”  Pro Football Network

S Reed Blackenship, Middle Tennessee

"Reed Blankenship is an active player with good size and physicality. He triggers quickly to what he sees, with a high motor and good sense of awareness. He has the ability to play at multiple levels but does best in the box, closer to the line of scrimmage. He has good instincts and flows well to the ball, along with good vision in underneath coverage.”  Bleacher Report

RB Kennedy Brooks, Oklahoma

"Brooks has adequate size and vision but really impresses with his ability to maintain space from defenders as the run progresses. He’s not a home run hitter or a physical finisher and is unlikely to offer much third down value. Brooks’ smooth, subtle running style can be taken for granted, but is perfect for outside zone teams looking to add competition. He’s an RB2 with upside.” — NFL.com

WR Britain Covey, Utah

"Covey’s size and age will work against him, but he plays bigger than he measures. He’s a talented punt returner who can make plays as a receiver after the catch, as well. He’s a choppy route-runner and fails to generate above-average separation but he was more consistent and productive as the 2021 season wore on. His scrappiness and talent as a return man could give him an outside shot to compete for a roster spot.”  NFL.com

OL William Dunkle, San Diego State

"Aggressive guard with broad, powerful frame but limited upside. Dunkle lacks the desired range as a run blocker and in his pass sets. Athletic opponents will cause him to struggle, but his size, strength and toughness give him a shot to find future starting reps even though his grade and tape is more in line with a backup role.”  NFL.com

DT Noah Elliss, Idaho

"Imposing space-eater with flashes of physical dominance against a level of competition that hasn’t fully tested him. He has the physical tools and power to make a living as a two-gapping, odd-front nose guard but will need to improve his technique and footwork to become a true tree stump in the middle against the run.”  NFL.com

LB Ali Fayad, Western Michigan

"Western Michigan EDGE defender Ali Fayad projects as a special teams contributor and a developmental hybrid linebacker at the NFL level. Fayad doesn’t have ideal NFL measurables to play on the edge and may be a player that is tried in a number of different roles, including SAM linebacker, in a bid to find a defensive role for him.”  The Draft Network

CB Mario Goodrich, Clemson

"After being a part-time player at Clemson prior to 2021, Goodrich elevated his game and jumped onto the scouting radar. He possesses next-level size and ball skills and a tremendous amount of upside. Goodrich needs to polish his game, but he has the tools necessary to make a roster as either a bump-and-run or zone cornerback.”  Pro Football Network

CB Josh Jobe, Alabama

"Josh Jobe is next in the line of great Alabama cornerbacks. Although he may not be as elite as some of his predecessors, he has the length and look of a top cornerback. Jobe may need some more time to develop before stepping into a starting role in the NFL, but he has most of the prerequisites to make an easy transition to the pros.”  Bleacher Report

QB Carson Strong, Nevada

"He’s a nice-sized pocket passer and one of the best arm talents we’ve seen in the draft over the past 20 years. But oftentimes, Strong is too intent on launching deep passes and he never developed as a short or intermediate passer. Strong comes with tremendous upside, and if he is medically cleared by teams, could eventually develop into a starting quarterback if he develops as a total passer.”  Pro Football Network

OL Jarrid Williams, Miami

"Williams can run block thanks to his big frame and willingness to keep his feet moving where his long arms displace run defenders from their assigned gap. As an overall tackle though, he needs development in his pass blocking technique since he is devoid of the strength or athleticism many NFL tackles acquire in their skillset.”  Sports Illustrated

I think I'm most looking forward to seeing Jobe and what he can do. Seems to have a bit of talent and I've seen good reports about him.
